Steak Cobbler

1/3 c. flour
2 t. salt (divided)

fresh ground black pepper

2 pounds round steak (cut into 1/2 inch chunks)

2 T. vegetable oil (I use canola)

1 large onion, diced into chunks

1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced

1 package (10 or 12 ounces) frozen mixed vegetables (could use fresh steamed)

1 cup beef broth

1/2 t. garlic powder

1/4 t. ground red pepper (optional)

1 t. browning and seasoning sauce

1 package (12 ounces) refrigerated buttermilk biscuits (10-12 biscuits) (can use homemade)

1. combine flour, 1 t. of the salt, & black pepper on a plate. Add the meat pieces & toss to coat.

2. In large skillet, heat oil over med/high heat. Add the beef chunks. Saute until browned.

3. Add 1 cup beef broth, cover & cook approx. 90 minutes until beef is fork tender.

4. Add diced onion & sliced mushrooms. Cover & cook until onions & mushrooms are tender, 10 minutes or so.

5. Add frozen vegetables & cook until heated through. (I usually pre-cook the frozen veggies in microwave so I don't add them frozen). Also add 1 t. salt, garlic powder, & red pepper. Also add the browning & seasoning sauce. (I use Kitchen Bouquet)

6. Should be the consistancy of beef stew. If it is a little runny, add some flour & stir until thickened.

7. Pour into greased 9x13 pan. Top with biscuits. Cook at 375 for 16-18 minutes until biscuits are golden.
